For those that didn’t get the chance tolisten in to the 1hr ChemEOnline Presentation by IanTravers Head of HSE Chemical IndustriesStrategyUnit – here is your opportunity.  If you can get your boss to sit down and listen to it with you it’s well worth an hour of anyone’s time– excellent messages which we should all be internalising and practicing at our facilities

Process safety is everybody’s responsibility. However, safety managers and engineers often have a much better understanding of its importance and how it is affected by strategic management decisions than the top-level managers and directors making these decisions. It is therefore up to engineers at all levels to educate their bosses.

This online presentation, by the Health and Safety Executive’s Ian Travers - a leading expert on chemical industry safety - shows how management decisions impact major hazard risks – and shares practical strategies on getting the message across to senior management.

Sustainable business success rests on safe operation – and the process of getting that right starts in the boardroom. Make sure those in the boardroom understand the importance and impact of their decisions.
